Placebo analgesia (PA) depends crucially on the prefrontal cortex (PFC), which is assumed to be responsible for initiating the analgesic response. Surprisingly little research has focused on the psychological mechanisms mediated by the PFC and underlying PA. One increasingly accepted theory is that cognitive reappraisal-the reinterpretation of the meaning of adverse events-plays an important ro...

According to appraisal theories of emotion, cognitive reappraisal is a successful emotion regulation strategy because it involves cognitively changing our thoughts, which, in turn, change our emotions. However, recent evidence has challenged the importance of cognitive change and, instead, has suggested that attentional deployment may at least partly explain the emotion regulation success of co...

background substance use and affective disorders frequently co-occur, but the role of affective dysregulation in addiction is often overlooked. there is evidence shows that substance – dependent individuals have more problems in regulating their emotions. objectives this study compared two commonly used emotional regulation strategies, cognitive reappraisal and suppression, in opioids and metha...

Adolescence is a stage of development in life that full emotional turmoil, conflict, and stress, which often lead to teenagers’ vulnerability depression symptoms. A potential serious case if the symptoms are not treated well includes risk suicidal ideation suicide behaviour. This research aims investigate test role self-compassion teenagers mediated by emotion regulation-cognitive reappraisal. ...

An emerging literature has begun to document the affective consequences of emotion regulation. Little is known, however, about whether emotion regulation also has cognitive consequences. A process model of emotion suggests that expressive suppression should reduce memory for emotional events but that reappraisal should not. Three studies tested this hypothesis. Study 1 experimentally manipulate...

OBJECTIVE Impairments in cognitive emotion regulation (CER) have been linked to functional neural abnormalities and the pathogenesis of major depressive disorder (MDD). Few functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have investigated the neural underpinnings of CER in samples with depression. As CER develops in childhood, understanding dysfunctional CER-related alterations in brain fu...

Although prefrontal cortex has been implicated in the cognitive regulation of emotion, the cortical-subcortical interactions that mediate this ability remain poorly understood. To address this issue, we identified a right ventrolateral prefrontal region (vlPFC) whose activity correlated with reduced negative emotional experience during cognitive reappraisal of aversive images. We then applied a...
